Giving away promotional mugs is a common business practise these days. Due to the ordinariness of this promotional gift, the recipient might just put away your mug because he/she already has a number of them lying in the office cabinet and does not want to add one more. In such a scenario, your challenge is to gift a mug that can hook the recipient with its funky design so that he/she would like to keep it.

This challenge can be met, if you select a mug that has some remarkable feature, which will force the recipient to keep it and prefer it to over other mugs he/she has or will be getting in future. To meet this challenge, un-tame your thoughts and come up with unique ideas, something like a mug with larger size than normal mugs or a mug with very comfortable handle. You can get some fresh ideas from the following mug designs.

You can choose metal-coated mugs to impress your customers or any passers by at occasions like tradeshows. The silver or golden look of these mugs attracts everyone towards them like a magnet. A colourful mug with coated silver or golden lustre will definitely increase the chance that the receiver will cherish it for years to come.

Another technique, which you can use to design promotional mugs, is a high-heat reaction. In this process, mugs are printed with special inks that react to heat. Therefore, as the user fills the mug with a hot beverage, the colours change and a very different printed image appears.

Mugs designed through the dye-sublime process are also indispensable because of the lively colours used to decorate these mugs. They look very beautiful and can win anybody's heart. Therefore, the owner will find it difficult to let it go. In the dye-sublime process, intense heat is used to transfer the vaporized ink onto the mug's surface, eventually producing beautiful mugs.

Even though promo mugs are quite famous as a promotional tool, travel mugs are still a unique idea. Give your customers' mugs that can be used while driving or anywhere out of the office and be confident about the fact that they will appreciate this item. It will be even better, if you can attach a 12-volt adapter to the mugs, so that reheating is possible during travel.

While using promotional mugs as an advertisement tool, take care of the simple fact that your mug has to stand out from the crowd, in order to attract the receiver. You can win the challenge of hooking your customers with your funky promotional gift.
